This is Windows, the quilt I made for a recent swap between members of the Australian/NZ Art Quilters online group. This morning I heard from the recipient, Annette, that my quilt had arrived, so now I can show you all.
I hand dyed the fabric earlier this year and then hand stitched it in squarish shapes to give the feel of windows. My stitching is irregular to provide the wonkiness that I love so much. I used the brilliant WonderFil Spagetti and Frutti cotton threads for the stitching.

Oh wow! This is just beautiful. I love your stitches.
Love the hand dyed fabric, gorgeous colour!
When I first opened your blog and saw the squares I thought Hmmm but the more I look at it the more I'm loving it.
I too love stitches that aren't straight. Any machine can do straight. I love quilts that you can tell were made by loving hands.
